AI employees for pest control

A pest call is a person who just saw something and wants it gone today. Maxxus.ai hires you a receptionist that calms the caller and captures the job in your name, a reminder agent that keeps the quarterly visits from being missed, and a re-engagement agent that brings back the customers whose plans lapsed, calling only where consent is on file.

Hire the receptionistInterview it first

The moment

They saw it an hour ago and they are calling everyone.

The caller is standing in the kitchen looking at the thing. An AI receptionist asks what they saw and where, takes the address and the callback number, and texts it to you. It does not offer a same-day visit unless you have told it that it may.

The roster

Who to hire first.

Three jobs from the roster, each briefed on your pest control company. Hire one to start; the others share the brief.

A shift in this trade

What a call sounds like.

A sample call in one pest control company's brief. Every business gets its own brief, so your employees know your hours, your calendar and your prices, not a generic script.

[SAMPLE CALL]
  1. Caller: I just saw a mouse run under the stove. I have kids. How fast can you come?
  2. Employee: This is the AI assistant for [YOUR BUSINESS NAME]. I understand, and mice are one of the most common calls we take. What is the address?
  3. Caller: Two-twelve Harbor Lane.
  4. Employee: Thank you. I have your number. The owner sets the schedule and will call you back to confirm a visit; if you see droppings, note where, it helps the technician.

Job texted with pest type and location notes; no arrival time offered.

The first-day brief

What your brief needs.

Ten minutes on the phone with us, and the three things only your pest control company can tell us.

  • Which pests you treat and which you refer out, by name.
  • Whether same-day visits exist and under what rule the receptionist may offer one.
  • The plan names and cadences, so reminders and re-engagement calls describe the right service.

Your first hire, by hours worked

A flat wage. Compare it with the hire you could not find.

Your first hire takes the tier you pick, whatever the role. Every hire after it is the additional wage on the same brief and adds to the pool. The wages page prints every figure.
